Usher’s Stepson (Tameka’s Son) in Critical Condition

A son of singer Usher Raymond's estranged wife, Tameka Foster, is in critical condition and unresponsive in an Atlanta hospital following a jetski accident on Lake Lanier Friday.

Gossip website TMZ.com reports that Kile Glover, the 11-year-old son of Foster and her ex-husband Ryan Glover, was air lifted to Children's Egleston hospital in critical condition with severe head injuries. The boy was unresponsive at the scene of the accident. (Usher is pictured holding Kile in a photo taken in 2008.)

Glover and a 15-year-old girl were riding in an inner tube being towed by a friend in a rented pontoon when a man in their party on a rented jetski collided into the children.

The unidentified girl was initially responsive at the scene but her condition rapidly deteriorated. She was placed in an air ambulance and flown to Egleston hospital.

Channel 2's Michael Buczyner later found out the girl had a broken arm and a laceration on her head.

The driver of the jetski is a 38-year-old Atlanta resident, Channel 2 Action News reports.

TMZ.com reports that despite their legal problems Usher chartered a private plane for Tameka, who was out of town, to rush to her son's side.

      This is the 3rd serious accident on Lake Lanier in the past 2 weeks. 2 children and a man were killed in the other 2 accidents.

      The boating accident that killed the 2 brothers last mth at Lake Lanier was heartbreaking as well :-(

      Dogging Tameka and wishing her son well are two different things. Having something negative to say about someone, doesn't apply to their entire family!

    • WalkingKontradiction

      Umm it's called empathy. People don't have to like each other or know each other to pray for one another in times of tragedy. That would be awfully petty dontcha think?

      Anywho :pray: for Tameka, Ryan and their family.

    • CookieMonsterZ

      I think people are praying for the children involved. And I'm sure mothers can empathize with a woman whose child is in distress. Anyways, sending good thoughts their way.

      I'm glad Usher can put their differences aside to help her when she's in need... I'm praying for a speedy recovery for her son.

    • ncbeauty&brains

      Wow..this is a mother's worst nightmare..to have something happen to her child and she is not there. :(

    • KayCeiSoul

      Praying the speedy recovery of her son.
      This is aad to hear about any kid. I have sons and would want prayers going up for me if needed.

      Prayers and blessings to Tameka and her babies in this rough situation.

    • WUT-IZ-SWAGU

      I don't like Tameka, but THIS site right here policy is to NOT say anything bad about celebs kids no matter how much we don't like the parents. They are off limits so with that said I pray for his recovery. So :cosign: with Kwiet, Walking, and Cookie Poor kid..

    • Daisy

      Not everybody bashes Tameka but like others have said that's neither here nor there. I wouldn't wish the injury and God forbid the death of a child on anybody including a enemy (which I don't have anyway).

    • capricorn83

      Wishing him a speedy recovery. Glad that Usher was able to help, despite their differences. Not really a Tameka fan but I'm sure she must be beside herself right now.

    • Audacious2

      How tragic, hope recover quickly.
      This reminds me of an experience at Lake Lanier some years ago, went out there with a retired NFL'r friend & my cousins. They wanted to jet-ski & I was the only available to drive the boat. I will never forget how rocky the water was, kept thinking someone is going to get hurt. The water level doesn't seem to be deep enough for the volume of people with water-crafts.

      His parents must be worried crazy! Hope the driver wasn't spinning out in the lake.

    • http://sandrarose.com Sandra Rose

      @ Audacious: Lake Lanier is not even a real lake. It's a reservoir of water that's 100 feet deep at the deepest points. The scary part is the dead bodies that can't be recovered from the bottom.

    • missmiami

      Wow

      Praying for her son. I was in an accident on Lake Lanier in 2002, my friend was damn near beheaded....people have the money to buy these water toys but don't operate them safely.

    • laterthannever

      So scary and sad, I hope that he recovers quickly and completely!

      I also hope Usher didn't release this press release and doesn't plan to bring her absence up in court!

      ___________________________________________

      I've exchanged words with Tameka several times on Twitter and at the end of the day that's neither here nor there. My thoughts and prayers are with her, her family,Kyle and the other victim. I wouldn't wish this kind of pain, heartache and devastation on anyone. As a mother I can't even begin to imagine what she is going through right now. Expressing compassion, empathy and common decency doesn't make anyone phony, it makes them human.

      The ajc just quoted an experienced boater about a week ago saying lake lanier is like the wild, wild west. Unexperienced, drunken people who don't really know how to properly operate watercraft. They said they never go on the water during the weekends. They were supposed to step up patrols but there is only so much you can do. I've been trying to follow the news but they seem to be respectful; not much out there right now. It would be too sad to lose two more children. Too much.

    • Nhere

      I hope these children have a speedy recovery. 100ft deep is crazy, hopefully the deep end is marked.

    • lady_cn

      :pray: for the children involved.

      This is exactly the reason I don't let son take part in activities such as this though. I'm often labelled as over-protective pf my son, but I'd rather be over protective than not protective enough.

      According to our sources, Kyle Glover (son of Usher's estranged wife Tameka Foster) has not experienced any brain activity since he was admitted to the hospital. We're told there has been no decision yet as to whether or not to take him off life support.

      Usher's 11-year-old stepson has been declared brain dead by doctors following the accident yesterday when he was struck by a jet ski ... TMZ has learned.

      According to our sources, Kyle Glover (son of Usher's estranged wife Tameka Foster) has not experienced any brain activity since he was admitted to the hospital. We're told there has been no decision yet as to whether or not to take him off life support.

      Our sources say Usher arrived at the hospital last night and Tameka has not left the hospital since she got there.

      As TMZ first reported, Kyle was struck in the head by passing jet ski while riding on an inner tube on Lake Lanier in Atlanta, GA.
      -----------------------------

      I feel so bad for her and their family. This broke my heart and I don't even know her personally but as a mother I can't imagine. And people can talk all they want but no one can deny that she loves ALL her children. No mother should ever have to face something like this. Praying that God gives her the strength she needs to make it through and God can perform miracles and if it's in His will that baby will pull through

    • pointhimout

      @7, that's what I said. Irony in this is their obvious bickering over the 2 small boys and now one of her older sons is enduring this tragedy.

    • pointhimout

      I'm so outta touch. Men wearing their paints inside the boot(s) now? I was just on Kenny Burns' twitter to see if he stepped outside himself for 3 seconds to publicly acknowledge this tragedy.

    • GreenJean

      :cry:

    • Cariblife

      So another site is saying that the lil guy was declared brain dead. :( Sandy can we please have a medical moment on this one. Thanks.

    • Ms. Everything

      Cariblife, brain dead means that his brain is no longer functioning. His heart is beating and lungs are working only because of the machines they have on him but if they were to disconnect the machines it's likely that he would pass shortly thereafter. But God is in the business of miracles and if it's meant to be this baby will pull through no matter what the doctors say. People have come back from worse and I'm just praying that it isn't his time yet and that he comes back from this. I have an 11 year old and this story brought me to tears

    • nine4ya19062000

      Wow... What an eye opener for Tameka and Usher who have been in a ridiculous custody battle over their own kids and in the grand scheme of things the differences and pettiness they've aired out recently becomes miniscule when you truly put it into perspective. I sure hope this situation alone helps them to come to an agreement to share those kids equally and love and nurture them together instead of fighting over them. Life is too damn short for silliness and this accident is proof. God bless that kid of Tameka's.

    • whatdoesitmatter

      I just read the baby has been declared brain dead. My heart is broken for them. :cry:
